PEAR APPLE SALAD DRESSING

Steps:

• Wash and dry fruits. Do not peel your fruit. Divide your apple and pear in half and chop into small pieces. It's important to weigh the fruit so that you get the correct ratios. I use my Perfect Blend Pro Scale and Application but any kitchen scale will work. Just remember to zero the scale after you put your container or dish on it to weigh the fruits.
• Place your chopped fruit, tarragon, water and selected sweetener in a small sauce pan. Cover and bring to a simmer. Keep heat low and simmer for approximately 8-10 minutes until the fruit is very soft. Cool to room temperature.
• Place your cooked fruit into the blender container and blend until very smooth. Vitamix speed is 10, 20 seconds of blending time.
• Add the vinegar and lemon juice to the blended fruit, pulse 2-3 times on variable speed 1. Can be served immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to a one week.
• Notes:
• This recipe can be doubled with the same results as long as your blending container can handle the volume.
• You can substitute 1 teaspoon THM Super Sweet or 2 teaspoons THM Gentle Sweet for the Stevia Extract Powder.
